The song of the summer is nothing? Why 2025's charts are so stale
Briefly

Shaboozey's 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' is a significant hit, currently at No. 5 on the Billboard chart despite its April 2024 release. The song features a country-tinged interpolation of J-Kwon's 2004 hit 'Tipsy.' The Billboard Top 10 also includes various songs from previous years, while 2025 has only produced one new hit song, 'Ordinary' by Alex Warren. The 2025 charts reflect a historical low in new hits, with artists' recent releases not breaking into the upper echelons of the charts.
The Billboard chart shows Shaboozey's 'A Bar Song (Tipsy)' is still popular, despite its April 2024 release, ranking at No. 5 with billions of streams.
2025 has produced the fewest new hit songs in US history, with only one track, 'Ordinary' by Alex Warren, released this year making it to the top.
